    Garrus and Tali know no equal. In ME2, they join up with you despite the Cerberus connections because they know you have good intentions and believe in you, treat you as if no time has passed since the destruction of the Normandy and stand by all the questionable decisions. In ME3, they have the most reasons to stay behind on their respective planets and fight back against the Reapers than others but still they drop what they're doing and follow you into hell.

    I remember romancing Garrus as a joke, like "haha, I'm dating an alien, because there's no male human option for me." I didn't like Kaidan at all, and I didn't want to romance Thane because I thought it was awkward and tragic to date him. Plus Garrus is my favorite character (I also wanted to experience the romance route of the game). But man, did I fall hard for him, for real, the moment he started talking romance. The drastic change from a badass to an adorable awkward mess, and then husband material. I've never romanced anyone that wasn't Garrus, its hard. There is no Shepard without Vakarian.

    My first/true run was with Femshep, and it seemed like a generic romance was brewing with Kaiden...only for my solider Shepard to start falling for Liara after she got all embarrassed after "what? no?" faux pas in the conversation after getting rescued. Seeing Liara's (obsessive) transformation after losing Sheppard and working to get her back cementing the relationship to me. Garrus was the absolute best bud on a crew of many buds. Having Kaiden quietly broach what could have been in ME3 and then seeing him let it go with his head held high was a pretty remarkable nice touch given how things had started. All in all - I never figured a video game would be able to do such a great job of organic relationship (romantic or otherwise) development.

    As much as i play Mass Effect, like i'm doing right now. For some reason, i am always on the side of Liara. She showed the most interest in Shepard in the 1st game (be it Prothean curiosity) in the second game, she battled against the Shadow Broker's Forces to retrieve your body so Cerberus could bring you back. In the Third game, she immediately joins you as the New Shadow Broker and teammate. And in the M4 teaser she is the one searching for you again.

    I don’t romance Jacob, but I still don’t get why people hate him so much. Like, the only explanation I’ve seen is that he’s boring compared to the others but… eh? I don’t think that earns him the spot of being the Worst Character to Ever Exist. He’s no worse than Liara was in ME1; the passive whisper-talking literally drove me up a wall in the first play through. At least she got a sense of assertiveness to her voice by the time ME3 starts and started being an actual character above being Shepard’s potential LI.

    • @attano2993
      @attano2993 2 місяці тому +2

      Honestly, if you don't romance him, he's fine. He's less interesting than garrus or tali, but not hateable. But if you romance him, he actually cheats on shepard between ME2 and 3

    • @beeziebubs2756
      @beeziebubs2756 2 місяці тому +2

      @@attano2993 I know about the cheating bit; fandom hated him before that point. The problem Jacob has is the same problem everyone in ME2 has: they’re in an overcrowded roster. As much as I like ME2 and the characters in it, 12 full squadmates including The Illusive Man, Joker, and EDI was just too many to write in the massive crunch time this game was made in. So a lot of the characters in ME2 come off a bit flatter than they did on ME3, where most of them have less screen time but are given twice as much character without needing to be explicitly exposition dumps (ie Samara for the Justicars and Ardat-Yakshi). Even Garrus and Tali suffer from this, with you not being able to recruit and talk to Tali until the second half of the game and Garrus constantly putting you off with, “Can it wait a minute.” If you were like me and wanted to talk to him constantly and had him on your roster early, you just couldn’t talk to him in the first part of the game, and if you did his loyalty mission first, there were only three more times you could actually talk to him, and that was if you romanced him (which I did).
      Jacob has the same problem most characters in ME2 do have, but he gets a lot more flak for it for some reason or another. Though, I definitely think someone on staff didn’t really like Jacob; they definitely did him dirty the way he became something of a shoulder shrug by the third game.

      Jacob is a badass in the general scale. But the scale Shepard uses has too big of a range to register him.

      And, no, I’m not complaining that Liara was a shy, bookish nerd; I’m saying she wasn’t an actual character _until_ the third game, where she was allowed to exist as something other than Shepard’s LI. She’s ok in ME3, but before that? Literally a nothing burger.
